What does the Valencia Ca Real Estate Market Show?

Valencia Ca Sellers

With the prices steadily rising this Spring and probably into the Summer, we will probably see many owners of townhomes and condos who have been underwater with their loans, finding some breathing room. With equity in their homes, these sellers will find ways to either refinance at the low interest rates still available out there, OR they will be selling if they want or need to move up to a larger home. This will hopefully also fuel an increase in the demand for single family homes and the Valencia Ca real estate market for single family homes will also continue to blossom for those home owners and potential sellers.

Valencia Ca Buyers

For those buyers asking “how’s the real estate market in Santa Clarita, the answer is that the Valencia Ca real estate market is not being kind to buyers, just as it is not being kind to buyers in most major metropolitan areas of the U.S. Increasing prices are being fueled primarily by the dramatic drop in number of homes for sale. The Valencia townhome and condo market is dominated by first time home buyers, and investors. Investors have cash and are out-competing FHA buyers and those offer with loans. Buyers who saw an opportunity to buy with the lower prices and low interest rates, now see a market place where those low prices are disappearing. Multiple offers create fierce competition among all buyers. We are likely to see this continue.
